X-beliebiges Geflüster (X-Sums + GW)

(Published on 31. December 2025, 11:54 by sujoyku)

If you are curious about the title: “Beliebig” is German for “arbitrary” and “x-beliebig” is an intensification of that, so something like “completely arbitrary” or maybe “everybody and their uncle” in less formal terms. “Geflüster” just means “whispering”.

Many thanks to all who have tested the puzzle! I wish you joyful solving and a Happy New Year!

Rules:

- Normal sudoku rules apply, i.e. each row, column, and 3x3 region has to contain the digits from 1 to 9 once each.

- X-sums: A clue outside of the grid indicates the sum of the first X digits in the respective row or column where X is the first digit seen from the clue.

- German Whispers: Adjacent digits on a green line must have a difference of at least 5.

Midsolve quite harder than 2* for me. Maybe I missed an easier deduction. Very fun puzzle. Thanks :)

You are much welcome, Christounet, thank you for your comment! The mid-solve surely has an increase of difficulty compared to the opening (nothing too complex, but a little heavier on the scanning). I was not quite sure myself, but testing suggested it should be 2* and I did not think it was 3* overall. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!
Kind regards, sujoyku
